Emergency Medicine for Everyone

Experience life in an emergency department

Practitioners of emergency medicine (doctors and nurses) must be able to adequately deal with high-stress, rapid medical detective work, as well as make split-second decisions that can make the difference between a patient’s life and death. This is usually carried out in the most intense department of a hospital – casualty.

Very interesting and well explained.
This course is great, it gives you a lot of information about what happens in the emergency department and how to act in certain situations. I have to congratulate the teacher, he explains everything clearly and in a way that really gets your attention and makes you want to keep listening. Totally recommended.
